5.0 out of 5 stars Informative, interesting and beautifully illustrated., 13 Nov 2000
By A Customer
This is an excellent revision of Potter's first book. I found it most informative and very readable. It manages to combine a general history of printed cartography with valuable information for collectors. It is an indispensable guide for both the more experienced map collector and those who are just starting to explore this fascinating area. A brilliant read.

1.0 out of 5 stars This is an old edition. Best to get the 2001 one instead, 15 Aug 2009
By Green Climber (Dartmoor, England) - See all my reviews
This is an old edition. Best to get the 2001 one instead. New edition has price guide and much more details of maps.

5.0 out of 5 stars Collecting Antique Maps, 3 Aug 2009
By J. Garside "John" (Somerset, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is excellent in that it has a great deal of vital information for the collector presented in a really interesting way. It covers all the significant map makers, engravers, etc., and has an excellent price guide to give a clear idea of rarity and value. With many beautiful illustrations it is, in my view, the best book of its kind for anyone wishing to enter the world of antique maps.
